Written by Cherlie Joseph, MSN, FNP-BC · Medically reviewed by Naurah Gaspard, DNP, FNP-C, FNP-BC · Updated November 2026

Florida adults can renew many ongoing, non-controlled prescriptions through an online refill visit, including blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, diabetes, asthma, acid reflux, birth control and stable antidepressant medicines. Controlled substances cannot be refilled through OurTopClinic.

Medicines we commonly refill

• Heart and blood pressure: lisinopril, losartan, amlodipine, hydrochlorothiazide, metoprolol
• Cholesterol: atorvastatin, rosuvastatin
• Diabetes: metformin and other non-insulin medicines
• Thyroid: levothyroxine
• Asthma and allergies: albuterol and controller inhalers, nasal sprays
• Stomach: omeprazole, pantoprazole, famotidine
• Birth control: pills, patch and ring
• Mood: stable, non-controlled medicines such as sertraline or escitalopram

What we don't refill online

OurTopClinic does not prescribe controlled substances, such as opioids, benzodiazepines (like alprazolam), ADHD stimulants, sleeping pills or phentermine. We also may not continue medicines that need close monitoring we can't provide online, or where your condition has changed. If so, we'll explain why and help you find the right next step.

How the refill visit works

1. Open Request a refill in your patient portal.
2. Tell us what condition the medicine is for, the name, dose and how you take it, and when you last saw a provider for it.
3. Your nurse practitioner reviews your health history for safety and sends the prescription to your pharmacy, or orders labs first if they're due.

A refill review is $79. Your pharmacy charges separately for the medicine, and your insurance or a discount card may lower that price.

Tips to never run out

• Request your refill when you have about a week left.
• Ask your pharmacy about 90-day supplies for long-term medicines.
• Keep an up-to-date medication list in your phone.
• Keep your labs current; many refills depend on them.
